What have you done to your car lately?

There is definitely an exhaust leak where the V band joins, but after 2 mins the pipe heats up and it goes, that is because the old clamp is ****ed, i ordered a new one today so should arrive sometime in the next few days.

The front O2 sensor looks pretty bad a lot of white marks from the old map running lean, but seems to be functioning, the rear O2 sensor is perfect are they directly swappable as the map completely ignores the second sensor anyway.

Sounds like a new V band will fix it, I order a new one few weeks back also just in case
Not sure if the 02s are interchangeable

Yer plastic everywhere.

Yep, cast aluminium intake. Heaps better air flow

Sweet notice any change

[poita]

Combined with the open ended Cobb air filter I have intake noise is quite loud.

Supposedly gives an extra pony or two, but not 100% on that.

Today I ordered:

Plasma dials
JSPerformance hose kit (breather and rad hoses, ancillarys kit looked a bit too much)
Compressor clutch coil
cam sensor as mine has busted around the wires.

Today i also Kissed goodbye to a chunk of my pay and will be living on a lovely diet of food less than $2

Thank goodness for savings aye.

next on the list:

parker bulbs
oil and filter
Coolant
new hose clamps for added security

and either pieces for the 280mm brake upgrade (which im finding will be a pain in the anus getting all the parts)

Or to just settle for slotted rotors and decent pads for my current 260mm SRI brakes.

Decisions.

Did you get some new gauge needles to go with the plasma dials? With my non-plasma dials, I've noticed the needles are dark when lit. This is because they're a solid and not transparent in colour.

Not hard to source the calipers and carriers, it's just the postage that's the killer.

Got 4 new tyres fitted.

Also, mate's new Astra SRi-T with smashed valve-train due to timing belt issues is all fixed and back on the road. I'll get him on the forum soon enough

Did he buy that Arden one you were talking about?

[delemonte]

Nah, he bought a silver one whose engine had just self-destructed. Runs really well now and it turns out it has a tune too!
